I wouldn’t be so sure about that.

I mean, obviously no one can see the future but Aaron Donald started to erode at 30 & he's the biggest freak of them all. It's typically what we see with all these linemen speaking broadly. Sure it's "possible" he could be a unicorn but betting on that is a fool's errand.
They should have traded him before the draft & avoided this mess all together when there was time to replace his production.
The Rams are in cap hell in part b/c of that deal but they did get a Super Bowl. The Chiefs are & should be playing the long game relative to the cap given the potential of Mahomes/Reid to pile them up. Exhibiting discipline is the right move IMO.
